blender worked but now it needs visual c++ 2008.

i’ve done something wrong. i stopped defragmenting. and now the blender that is properly installed, in Program Files, wont work, saying i need visual c++ 2008.

other blenders i have work in their own installation directories.

i’m not online on my pc at home so i can’t download what this ttp://www.microsoft.com/express/download/#webInstall tries to download, by which i mean i can get this to my computer but then i fail.

this isn’t so much a problem as a pain. sorry.

Yeah,

I noticed that 2.48 needs the 2008 runtimes as well. The previous version only needed the 2005 runtimes.
